Add Reasoning Effort parameter to Azure OpenAI Chat Model node [GOT CREATED]

The idea is:

Add the possibility to set the reasoning effort parameter when using a reasoning model (o-series) via the Azure OpenAI Chat Model node.
Right now, the parameter cannot be set. That means, the default is used by Azure OpenAI, which is “medium”.

Any resources to support this?

Here is more information on the reasoning_effort parameter by Microsoft Azure: o-series reasoning effort

Are you willing to work on this?

Sure, ich can contribute and make a PR for this.

We would need this now as well because of many changes in azure regarding to gpt 5.4 :slight_smile:

Good news — reasoning effort control has been released in n8n v1.79.0 via #13103. It was implemented on the OpenAI Chat Model node and Azure OpenAI inherits the same options. Closing as completed.
